Hi John,

Average petrol prices rose in the September quarter 2020 after a record low earlier in the year, but still remain well below the 15-year real average of 151.6 cents per litre (cpl), according to a new report from the competition watchdog, the ACCC.

The great value sales continue, with Belkin announcing that from tomorrow, December 12, 2020, until Christmas Eve, Belkin's popular Wireless Charging range is on sale for up to 30% off, which is perfect for those who leave their present shopping to the last minute!
A trend in people shifting from fixed to mobile communications is continuing, according to the telecommunications industry regulator, the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA).
Macquarie has been recognised for customer-first approach to networking technology, in what is the company’s impressive fourth global award win in just over two months.
Fibre broadband networks company Vine Networks has selected a networkaccess, software as a Service (SaaS) fibre network management platform from location intelligence solution provider for telecommunications, The Spatial Distillery Company.
When Oracle Corporation, a company that is not exactly known for being friendly to free software and open source, appears to be more friendly to Linux users than Red Hat, then it is time for people to sit up and take notice.
The Critical Infrastructure Bill, introduced by the Minister for Home Affairs, Peter Dutton MP, will recognise telecommunications and data centres as critical national infrastructure for the first time.
The founder of the CentOS project, Gregory M. Kurtzer, has set up a new distribution called Rocky Linux, and aims to replicate what he did with CentOS – provide users with a distro that is similar to Red Hat Enterprise Linux, apart from the trademarks.
Guest Contribution: The global pandemic has driven home the fact that data is vital to the success of every organisation. Companies across Australia and New Zealand (ANZ) are realising the importance of scaling and growing their analytics capabilities — something that has only become even more important in the COVID era. Let’s take a look at some key trends, predictions and opportunities for data analytics, AI and business intelligence for 2021. And of course, there's plenty more today, so for all the news, please visit www.itwire.com .
